Use a proxy.

You need to get fixed Dav. They don't do it neither for the people nor out of belief it will do good. They do it because someone authorized them the power to do it and because companies probably lobby them to do it. China is a whole different story. The Internet is, ultimately, ruled by the major IT companies that run it. They control EVERYTHING in reality. They can sniff your so-called "encrypted" email if they so wish and see that you've spent the last four days d/l warez off bittorrent and fapping to 4chan threads. Eitherway, regardless... The problem isn't legal liability, enforcement or lack there of and loopholes, it's that the majority of the PC users are ignorant bores, incompetent and uncapable of properly operation their machine, lacking basic knowledge, understanding and IT-cognitivity. The problem is the dumb, Joe Smith, End-User who doesn't know how to protect his PC from spyware, leaving it open for assault, then infecting his other 5,000 online friends who are equally PC-re!@#$%^&*ed and from there it goes on in a geomatric rate onto their friends and so on and so forth. THAT"S THE PROBLEM. Combat the end-user, and all this Internet malware drama ends and the ASSS who finance this !@#$%^&* gonna go bunkrupt.

They post without a clue, flame me, and I'm the one getting rapped on. IDK, maybe because THEY GOT MOD AND ARE IN THE SACK WITH THE ADMIN. Yeah. Now, to the dumb-le-door(s), soon to be owned by Snape (I think they're both sad pieces of poo, who the !@#$%^&* reads harry pothead to begin with?): I don't believe that only SVS zones should ever exist. I believe that some zones game design can be innovative/unique and thus operate outside of the SVS frame. I believe that superzones are newbish' date=' devoid of skill and that quick gratification means your accomplishments are of insignificance and degrade quality of game. I don't believe that INF is so perfect that SS isn't worth my time. I do believe that INF is currently at growth whilst SS suffers from years of stagnation' date=' degradation and corruption. A quick look back will reveal co-simultaneous users at peak hours of around 4,000 in number some years back, whilst nowadays barely 1-2k. At the very least, there's development going in INF and the engine is superior. Pot & Kattle. Answers.com borrows from wikipedia. As I've said before' date=' I'm not going to refer to the wikipedia; it is an abomination on all levels and layers implied.[/font'] This is nothing more than a really but a simple query' date=' as simple as the ping command used to derive ping times.[/font'] All it does is dispatch a query to the server for information which it publicly propagates, in this case its user count. Both of these are present in almost ANY game server (mainly for boasting clientele statistics on the website). By your logic, then, EQ, Quake and countless more apparently all share the same software as SubSpace. I shall summate with this: You have insufficient knowledge and all the wrong aspects. Thus far, you've done nothing but spreading misinformation and your far-fetched, baseless, theories. I suggest you cease since it adds nothing of value other than confusion and flawed conclusions.

I want to change my earlier vote. Freakmonger is an abusive !@#$%^&* who can't take his dumb !@#$%^&* handed back to him in defeat when he's talking stupid !@#$%^&* without factual base and lose. Oh and he warn moi for bashing, aka I told him he knows jack, and delete my posts whether they have bashing or not, yet he had no problem what-so-ever at telling me how I don't matter, and my oppinion being worth to !@#$%^&*. Yeah, GG there, hypocrit FTW @ SS. And that's why a so called merge between this piss poor, sorry excuse for a sad 'community' and ours beutiful place of freedom is never going to happen.

No it's not, you obviously know nothing.

w00t, another project to dive onto. I love stretching myself thinner than a microdot!

Sony won't do jack !@#$%^&* other than send C&Ds. They've done it in the past, now they can't anymore, since servers are offshored and they have no jurisdiction to scare the datacenter (all they do is have a secretary email a pre-typed/formatted C&D mentioning the DMCA to the host to scare them off and get server shutdown, of course this means squat outside of the USA). We're peeing all over SOE. They can't touch us, they've tried plenty, we laugh in response. If anything, FreeINF could port your zones over, your inferior game engine couldn't possibly ever support all the advanced features employed in zones, needless mentioned LUA scripting. Also, I believe I can speak for all of FreeINF when I say: ROFLMAO @ YOUR MERGE IDEA. Here're the major factors of why it won't work: 1. We care about freedom. 2. We care about players. 3. We care about staff not being abusive and corrupted.

New sucker born every minute? MG MG MG MG, all I hear from you !@#$%^&* newbies is MG. Who the !@#$%^&* cares about MG? You do. Why? IDK...maybe because you're their admin. I was actually refering to the rest of the 'network' with its 10 or so dumb dead zones, but sorry that I didn't count MG, maybe it's because it's a piece of crap of a newb zone wannabe-Infantry that even I have came up with a better gamepklay design back in 98 or 99 and that no one, in particular me, give a !@#$%^&* about. MG! Good thing EG isn't involved here, they could bring 200 troll-drones on a finger snap to testify how awesome their zone, and therefore their network must be too, is. *barf* Yet you just did. And guess what, the rest of SubSpace doesn't care a flying !@#$%^&* about your network/oppinion either. I don't prodd Alex daily to give up about you, come to the conclusion that "WTF wasting all energy over fixing your idiot punk lamers !@#$%^&* when can be playing with children and having fun" and shutting down everything aside premier league. And let me tell you, he's probably a !@#$%^&* lot closer to it than he let you see. Try playing kindergarten nany to a huge bunch of dumb !@#$%^&*ed kids, see how long you can take it.

It's not about being arguementative. It's about her acting like an immature little brat, presenting a fake personality and trying to seek attention by flaming and baiting. It's sad, undesireable, and a quick way to my perm ignore blacklist. I have a very low tolerance threshold to stupidity. Messing about is one thing, having a little fun is okay, but this is blatant profused idiocy.

Run Grav.... Run whilst ye can! You may be Jewish, but even your funds aren't unlimited. A girl like that can bleed you dry in zero flat if you give her half a chance. hehehe See, when I discriminate, I discriminate UP I went up against Sony's lawyers for messing with SOE/Infantry. To date, I've sued several companies/legal en!@#$%^&*ies and have won + 1 folded and gave me what I wanted. She's more than welcomed to try. Just know that defeat means a ring on her finger. HAR!

I didn't go onto specific details as I don't know most of individual zone's personal history, nor is it of major concern to the summary and is mostly being infused with a lot of political struggle BS. There is also a !@#$%^&* lot more of internal-SSC BS and what not that I DO know about that I didn't want to get onto because it's going to end in bias and, again, irrelevant to the history review. Seriously, who looks at T3G or Testtube's failed network made 98% of bots and 1% of the zone staff/owners 24/7 in spec and 1% players?

Internet bar should be set at 120 IQ.

Nee! Nee! Nee! Nee! http://moon.felk.cvut.cz/~pisem1/blog/KnightsWhoSayNi.jpg

There were plenty of non-VIE zones since first retail round, but they were all amatuers without any organization (noteably, rx7 aka nitrous oxide's Extreme Games among one of the first to still be around nowdays) and seperate from each other running off people's cable modems, many of them poping up like mushrooms and then go down within a week never to be seen again. Baud orginized a central (SSC biller) network and the INet hosting servers in the dying throbes of VIE and ran all the official zones; xalimar ran the entire SSX network farm, permanently hosting user zones; they combined together a bit later to essentially become all and whole of SubSpace. Nowdays, with INet/Sonera pulling out of SS due to restracturing and Xalimar losing the hosting due to some !@#$%^&*hat tattle-taling on him, Priit host all of SS.

NR, you are arguing with an immature person, possibly suffering from an inferiority complex, obviously putting up a show/psuedo-personality on the Internet trying to cry for attention. I suggest you do as I did, perm, and move on.

Rod had a short backstory to Subspace, back in those days he was big time onto writing, like any good designer should. The Shark was the idea of some sort of alien presence, then couple vers after the retail release ver they decided to throw it onto the mix as a final bonus gambit. It was never completed, its model, infact. Shark is the sysop *UFO (aka, ghostship), which you supposedly see in the SS Intro. v1.34 was the last retail. v1.35 is Sage386 patch disabler versus his (yes, he made both cheat and protection) twister hack. IIRC, and I may be very wrong as it was quite some long time ago (decade!!!), VIE shutdown somewhere october or december 98, about a week or couple after the "The Big End" rumours begun to fly on the SS mainstream. I think it was KBoom who slip loose the headsup about it. Also, the wiki suck balls. Here's somewhat of a summary of 'our' history which I've composed. http://www.theventer.com/Temp/historystory.txt http://www.freeinfantry.com - the underground Free Infantry movement, going strong and large.

Best SS practical joke ever. A girl with that much passion, I would offer her marriage, HAR!

Mav, you're abusive. It's old news. I'm not going to argue over that which I've experienced in person.

Not at all. This is Blizzard, remember? If you can run WC3, you can run this.

I'm speaking from resources standpoint, you don't want more than these two bots to crawl/cache/refresh/b-w leech your site. All the other engines are deploying dataminers to crawl on google, so basically once you're listed on google by their bot, you're listed on everyone.

Yes L0SA, calling me a homosexual will really solve all your problems. Well, you are obviously far too mature and intelligent for me. You win. Yours is larger. Have a fun life.

L0SA, seriously now... You seem to either be baiting for trollish flame wars or honestly believing all guys here will just drop to your feet, proclaim you the eternal righteous diva and worship you because you're a girl, or something in between. Stop the BS game, cut the crap, "be chill, honeybunny" and be natural...or decent, or something. Take some valium or get laid, whatever will mellow your 'tude and crack a smile on your face. This is becoming more re!@#$%^&*ed with each added-page iteration.

I think it is a moot point. SSForum never been SubSpace's, it has always 'belonged' to swift or polix, as well as any other admin they had jump on the wagon, and their way was enforced throughout. These forums always been sscentral's, I see no point in arguing to move it to a seperate domain or otherwise. To me, it's not a problem eitherway, !@#$%^&*, I used to type off memory a string of something like http://www.ds98.com/subspacehq/wwwboard/messages.cgi or whatever it was every morning, my fingers have a very good pattern-memory. The only 'SubSpace' forums were VIE's followed by warstrike/nmebase/ds98/sshq and SubSpace.net's, then warzone's (mostly premier league forums outside of the fold with their own cult).

I look at the forum index where it lists members, there are so many colors I don't even know what half of them mean. Also, not all admins are listed here, a quick look reveals an alarming quan!@#$%^&*y of staff obesity: http://forums.sscentral.com/index.php?act=...mp;CODE=leaders
